Dear packager,

At 20091029T192211Z, while scanning the rawhide repository located at:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/static-repos/dist-rawhide-current/x86_64/
I have identified the following problems in your fonts-hebrew-fancy package:

SRPM                RPM                 4  5  11  19
fonts-hebrew-fancy  fonts-hebrew-fancy  9  9  9   1
                    Total               9  9  9   1

4. Fonts in packages that do not declare font metadata

    ☛ Font-specific rpm metadata is required for automatic font installation to
    work. If you apply our font packaging templates, it will be generated at
    package creation time.


5. Fonts in packages that do not respect font naming conventions

    ☛ Please respect font package naming conventions and provide consistent
    packages to users. Some scripts may depend on strict package naming.


11. Packages that mix different font families

    ☛ Reliable font auto-installation requires shipping only one font family
    per font package.
    
    (If you've remapped some font names at the fontconfig level your package
    may appear here pending some fontconfig fixes upstream is aware of).


19. Fonts that do not pass fontlint sanity checks

    ☛ Fontforge's fontlint¹ test suite found problems in some files included in
    the package. Those problems may not be obvious and only manifest as strange
    behaviour in specific applications (making them hard to debug). For that
    reason it is recommanded to report those problems upstream and get them
    fixed, even if the font file seems to work fine most of the time.
    
    You can ask help about specific fontlint errors on:
    https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fontforge-users
    
    ¹ http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/fontlint.html

Please take the appropriate measures to fix the fonts-hebrew-fancy package.

I will warn you again if I find problems next time I am ran.

Your friendly QA robot,
